Hidden cameras are small recording devices designed to capture video or audio without being easily noticed. They can be used for various purposes, including security, surveillance, and monitoring activities in homes or businesses. These cameras can be disguised as everyday objects, such as smoke detectors or picture frames, making them difficult to detect. The use of hidden cameras raises ethical and legal concerns, particularly regarding privacy. In many places, laws regulate their use, especially in private settings. It is important for individuals to understand the legal implications and obtain consent when using hidden cameras to avoid potential violations of privacy rights.
